Plugins

What is a plugin?

A plugin is a block of code that is integrated into Yandex.Browser and expands the browser's features. Unlike extensions, plugins do not normally have an interface. Plugins are used for playing video and audio in the browser, viewing PDF documents, improving the operation of web services, collaborating on projects in the internet, and so on.

Install plugins

Usually, you need to install plugins when you visit a site that has a specific type of content (for example, a video). To display this content properly, you must install a specific plugin.

Yandex.Browser will tell you that a certain plugin needs to be installed and offers to install it. You will see a notification in the upper part of the page. You will need to download the latest version of the plugin from the developer's website and install it yourself.
